Cell Phone/Data Plan Request Form
1. The Department of Information Resources is responsible for managing all cellular
phone/data contracts between the University of Kansas Medical Center and cellular
providers regardless of the funding source. This policy includes data enabled devices
including BlackBerry‟s, PDA‟s and other mobile devices.
2. We are required, by an Executive Order of the Governor, to assure that the
cellular/data plan selected for your use is the minimum plan necessary to meet your
business requirement. We will work with you to understand your business need and
to identify the appropriate plan. Please summarize, in the space provided below,
your rationale for requiring cellular service.
3. State policy prohibits more than minimal personal use of a State-provided cellular
phone. A detailed listing of your calls (call log) will be provided to you each month
from the Division of Information Resources. You will need to review the calls and
certify that they are all business related. In the event some calls are not business
related you will need to identify the calls on the call log. Note: IRS regulations will
require the University to report the value of the personal usage as a taxable benefit.
4. If your bill is for the base plan only, we will report as taxable income the pro-rated
value of the personal use as a percentage of the base plan charge. For example, if
your base plan is $40 and 10% of the use is personal, we will report taxable income
of $4.
If your bill is in excess of the base plan, we will report as taxable income the pro-
rated value of the personal use (included in the base plan) as a percentage of the
base plan charge. Additionally, you will need to reimburse us for any personal use
charged beyond the base plan. Your department will have 15 days following the
receipt of the monthly call log to process the reimbursement.
5. Cellular contracts cannot include charges for replacement or repair of a lost or
damaged phone/data device (“insurance”), or any other added services (“roadside
assistance”).
6. No reimbursement can be offered for business-related use of a personal cell phone.
7. The State Division of Accounts and Reports will periodically audit usage logs.

Cell Phone/Data Device Disposition
At your department‟s discretion you may have the option of purchasing
the cell phone or data device and taking it with you when you leave the
University. You will need to reimburse the University for the value of the
device based on a 3-year useful life. (I.E. You leave the University 2 years
after the original purchase of the device. You will need to reimburse the
University for 1/3 of the original cost of the device.)
At your department‟s discretion the phone number may be ported to your
personal cell phone device/carrier if the department no longer needs the
number.
As soon as possible after announcing your resignation you will need to
inform your department that you wish to purchase the device or port the
number and obtain their approval.
Upon approval telecommunications will work with you to port the number
to your designated carrier.
If you do not wish to purchase the device it will remain the property of
your department.
